The artistic practice I engage in includes work in various media such as sculpture, video, video or sculpture performance, installation and text. The figure of the author is often dominantly involved in the work of art as the subject who performs the action, which ultimately results in self-irony, humor or absurdity. Some of the works can be read through the lens of institutional criticism or the artist's relationship to the art scene and society in general, while most of them are specific personal poetics with less explicit socially engaged content. At the content level, there is a fascination with the methods and practices of transforming the everyday worthless into the artistically valuable, with themes such as theft, forgery, flying, the illusion of time and space, the reinvention of the already existing, false representation, leisure, radical food consumption, etc.

Expressions in Sculptural Materials and Technology of the Sculptural Process are courses where students encounter traditional and contemporary materials and procedures in sculpture, and through exercises create their own authorial concepts.
